Bab 559: The Burden of the Body

"What happened after that?" Chu Ning was a little curious about Yan Shen's Great-grandma's story.

"Later on, I grew up. I must have been ten years old, and Great-grandma aged a few more years. With the sands of time, even if Great-Great-grandma was so tough, she was still worn down. I studied in my hometown and lived in school since primary school. Great-grandma would come to see me on weekends. Even though it was only a few kilometers away, it was very tiring for her." Yan Shen described his past memories in great detail.

"I wanted to send her back by car, but Great-grandma refused." Yan Shen smiled feebly. The past seemed to appear before his eyes.

"She told me that either I help her walk back or she'd walk back by herself. Thus, every weekend after that, a young man could be seen walking along the street paved with bluestone slabs, carefully accompanying an old lady with white hair, their figures getting longer and longer."
